Subsequent playthroughs of Ace Combat 4, knowing the full story of Yellow 13 and 4 with the Spanish guitar accompaniment (even though blah blah war crimes etc). I guess because I know I did it while jamming to rock ballads with qaam spam. Mihaly of AC7 was such a weak arc by comparison.
Assassin’s Creed Unity in the post-Templar part, my 3rd experience with Ubisoft avoiding happy endings but my first Assassins creed
I recommend you follow Felipe Pepe’s twitter, he often talks about asian games that are ignored by the western media even though they sold millions of copies. x.com/felipepepe/status/1728297222541025358?s=20
Binding of Isaac: Repentance, the true ending. It hits harder because it’s the first time we got a definitive ending since the original game came out in 2011.
Same one as you, Rosalina’s backstory made me tear up a little bit. It was really really well done, and so unexpected in a Mario game of all places.
When first reading through Katawa Shoujo, Shizune’s path (botched as it is) still hit me really hard with Misha being an aside that can’t fit in, then later Rin’s neutral ending also got me really bad.
Teenage me at the end of disc 1 of FF7, of course.
The ending of Signalis just recently.
And probably a lot more. FFXIV has a lot of sad and emotional moments, although none of them hit me quite as hard as some other games did.
Ugh yeah, FF7 when Aeris is killed by Sephiroth. And the scene where Cloud carries her into the water... I was bawling. Afterwards I think I just sat there dumbfounded, staring at the empty spot in my party until after like 5 minutes I turned off the game cause I needed a break to mourn. I know the graphics don't really hold up these days, but it was all to real to me as a child and it was one of my first experiences with death even though it was just a video game character.
I'm not really a crier when it comes to games, but what brought me close most recently was when I was doing a run of the entire Metro trilogy for the first time.
::: spoiler Spoiler ahead for Metro Exodus
If you're doing the good ending run of Metro Exodus, then you spend most of the game beating the odds and being able to save everyone...
So watching Colonel Miller, someone you become fairly attached to throughout the series, succumb to radiation poisoning while you drive out of Novosibirsk, knowing that there was absolutely nothing I as the player could do but watch was heart-wrenching.
He'd completed the mission, but he just couldn't make it home - it's such a bittersweet ending, but including his speech at the end, it's a good one.
